the former director of security for newtown public schools told cnn that he had asperger's syndrome based on conversations he had with his mother years ago. until now, no one in any official capacity had commented directly on this possible piece of the case if that in fact has anything to do with the case at all. it's a sensitive issue. many people worry that violence will be incorrectly linked to asperger's syndrome. chief medical correspondent dr. sanjay gupta joins me now. first of all, can you explain what asperger's syndrome is and how it typically presents itself? >> asperger is on the autism spectrum. they use the term spectrum on purpose to be a little bit vague because there are all sorts of symptoms with this. but asperger's considered the highest form of functioning of autism. they're often time socially awkward. they have a hard time making eye contact. strong social connections. again, anderson, you and i talked about this, there are people running major companies in this country who have come out and said they also have asperger's. you can be highly functional with this. but
